Smart Parking Lot 2


Apps are now a mainstream, trusted way to deliver content and services. But in a crowded market, how does a mobile app become useful, relevant, and valued so it delights and retains users? The answer is User experience or in nerdy terms UX.
User friendly Mobile app is going to make the project successful. So our team had to go through a lot of process to make the app smooth and meet most of the user constrains suggested by 'Android Developers', which is the official documentation of Android by Google. We have used more buttons and less text fields, so a user can book a parking slot in few taps. It is highly recommended by Android Developers to have more buttons in the lower half of the Mobile phone since it is easily reachable by the thumbs. We got many UX ideas from the Uber app which is a billion dollar business. Since lot of UX engineers have spend lot of time in making the app user friendly we can assure that those UX ideas of Uber are worth a lot for our app. 

White spaces in a mobile are vital, that is going to make the user feel more comfortable while using. So we have considered this as a important factor to improve the UI. I have given the task of designing and improving the mobile app part of our project so please comment for more ideas to improve the app.

The Journey Begins | Google Summer of Code

Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is a global program focused on bringing more student developers into open source software development. Students work with an open source organization on a 3 month programming project during their break from school. It has always been a wish of mine to contribute to open source community. I was ecstatic would be an understatement when I got the opportunity to contribute Gnome foundation through GSoC 2019. We go through an organized and friendly environment during this period which makes GSoC a great way to enter the open source community. More importantly each student gets a mentor to guide him/her through out the GSoC period. And I am the luckiest to have gotten Sebastian Dröge as my mentor.

Review | GSoC 2019

Image
I've been working on GStreamer based project of Gnome Foundation. GStreamer is a pipeline-based multimedia framework that links together a wide variety of media processing systems to complete complex workflows. The framework is based on plugins that will provide various codec and other functionality. The plugins can be linked and arranged in a pipeline. And most of the plugins are written in C. Now the developers are in an attempt to convert them to Rust which is more robust and easily maintainable. My task is to be a part of this conversion and to help fix issues related to this. Planned Tasks Implement Hyper-based HTTP source around async IO and make it feature-complete.

I was there at GNOME.Asia Summit 2019

I was there at Gnome Asia Summit 2019 in Gresik, Indonesia as a speaker. Since I am very new to open source community this was a great experience. I conducted the New comers workshop with my pal Gaurav Agarwal from India. We had our parallel class on day 0 (which is actually day 1) on the premises of University of Muhammadhiya. The expenses of me to attend the event was sponsored by Gnome Foundation. I'm so thankful for this great opportunity. Let me run through my experience in Gresik and in the conference. I and Guarav landed on 10th of October 2019 in Surabaya. Mr. Firdhous from local community came to pick us up and we had the hotel already booked in Gresik. They dropped us in Hotel Santika Gresik which was fabulous. On the next day I went to the conference and met with people from local community and open source community. I had my talk after lunch and It went very well. We used our personal experience and getting started with Gnome guide to steer the participants towa
